11:25 and anyone who carries their carcass must wash his clothes and will be unclean until the evening.

Imamat 13:6

13:6 The priest must then examine it again on the seventh day, ³  and if ⁴  the infection has faded and has not spread on the skin, then the priest is to pronounce the person clean. ⁵  It is a scab, ⁶  so he must wash his clothes ⁷  and be clean.

Imamat 13:34

13:34 The priest must then examine the scall on the seventh day, and if ⁸  the scall has not spread on the skin and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, ⁹  then the priest is to pronounce him clean. ¹⁰  So he is to wash his clothes and be clean.

Regulations for Eating Carcasses

17:15 “‘Any person ¹⁹  who eats an animal that has died of natural causes ²⁰  or an animal torn by beasts, whether a native citizen or a foreigner, ²¹  must wash his clothes, bathe in water, and be unclean until evening; then he becomes clean.

[11:32]  ¹ tn Heb “And all which it shall fall on it from them.”

[11:32]  ² tn Heb “in water it shall be brought.”

[13:6]  ³ tn That is, at the end of the second set of seven days referred to at the end of v. 5, a total of fourteen days after the first appearance before the priest.

[13:6]  ⁴ tn Heb “and behold.”

[13:6]  ⁵ tn Heb “he shall make him clean.” The verb is the Piel of טָהֵר (taher, “to be clean”). Here it is a so-called “declarative” Piel (i.e., “to declare clean”), but it also implies that the person is put into the category of being “clean” by the pronouncement itself (J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 176; cf. the corresponding opposite in v. 3 above).

[13:6]  ⁶ tn On the term “scab” see the note on v. 2 above. Cf. NAB “it was merely eczema”; NRSV “only an eruption”; NLT “only a temporary rash.”

[13:6]  ⁷ tn Heb “and he shall wash his clothes.”

[13:34]  ⁸ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV).

[13:34]  ⁹ tn Heb “and its appearance is not deep ‘from’ (comparative מִן, min, meaning “deeper than”) the skin.”

[13:34]  ¹⁰ tn This is the declarative Piel of the verb טָהֵר (taher, cf. the note on v. 6 above).

[14:8]  ¹¹ tn Heb “the one cleansing himself” (i.e., Hitpael participle of טָהֵר [taher, “to be clean”]).

[14:8]  ¹² tn Heb “and he shall be clean” (so ASV). The end result of the ritual procedures in vv. 4-7 and the washing and shaving in v. 8a is that the formerly diseased person has now officially become clean in the sense that he can reenter the community (see v. 8b; contrast living outside the community as an unclean diseased person, Lev 13:46). There are, however, further cleansing rituals and pronouncements for him to undergo in the tabernacle as outlined in vv. 10-20 (see Qal “be[come] clean” in vv. 9 and 20, Piel “pronounce clean” in v. 11, and Hitpael “the one being cleansed” in vv. 11, 14, 17, 18, and 19). Obviously, in order to enter the tabernacle he must already “be clean” in the sense of having access to the community.

[14:9]  ¹³ tn Heb “And it shall be on the seventh day.”

[14:9]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “and he shall be clean” (see the note on v. 8).

[14:27]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “and the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger from the oil which is on his left hand.”

[14:46]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “the one who comes into.”

[14:46]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “he,” referring to the priest (see v. 38). The referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[16:26]  ¹⁸ tn For “Azazel” see the note on v. 8 above.

[17:15]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “And any soul” (נֶפֶשׁ, nefesh).

[17:15]  ²⁰ tn Heb “carcass,” referring to the carcass of an animal that has died on its own, not the carcass of an animal slaughtered for sacrifice or killed by wild beasts. This has been clarified in the translation by supplying the phrase “of natural causes”; cf. NAB “that died of itself”; TEV “that has died a natural death.”

[17:15]  ²¹ tn Heb “in the native or in the sojourner.”
